Good Morning Erik .. Thank you for that 👍. It is always nice when you give some background / explanation as to how / why you do certain things. It adds to the enjoyment in watching your Posts 😊. It also shows us that one does not need 'much' to go out and enjoy the outdoors .. and motivates us to do so. Much appreciated .. take care .. stay safe .. Tommy

Erik, you should write a book. I think the way you express yourself through narration would come out well in writing.

Hi Erik. I'm curious, how much bigger are your winter boots compared to your regular shoes? You must have to make room for all the extra layers you put on for your cold, winter treks. Sorry if you already mentioned this in an another video.

Very best VBL (Vapor Barrier Line)-> 3 mm closed cell neoprene divers' socks over light poly liners. Change to clean poly liners every night. Place inside-out VBL socks inside sleeping bag after drying in tent. These VBLs have lasted me for many years! My favorite brand is US Divers (Aqua Lung in the countries)

Your experience always brings us great knowledge. So many videos of people putting the closed cell foam under the air mattress and talking about blocking the cold from the ground. The cold air still hits the side walls of the air mattress and the air has to be heated. Putting the foam on top seems smart , especially if you have direct contact to a reflective side . Love your stuff. Ever consider a hot tent? I have one and it’s great. See you again and stay safe

Hi Erik. I find those Videos - where you explain yourself and your gear a little bit - to be very instructive and helpful. Learning from other peoples experiences is very helpful. You once made a Q&A where you started with a Question about the potential fear of wild animals. There for, I personally would like to see another Video about this topic, aspecially about animals that one can find in northern Sweden (which seems to be your home). But never the less I really keep enjoying your videos! (... just by writing this I recognize, that I dont really know who you are. I don not know if you ever thought of sharing personal storys with your viewers, but I would be interested in hearing more about you and your background). Greedings!

"UL Winter Camping Gear" seems almost an oxymoron as winter gear is always heavier than 3 season gear. But here's mine: 1.)Tarptent Notch Li tent 2.)WesternMountaineering overstuffed Megalite down sleeping bag 3.)REI FLASH All Season air mattress (R 5.3) 4.)Trail Designs titanium sheet cone wood stove & 3 cup pot 5.) Down sweater & down vest 6.)XL eVent parka 7.)ski gloves & fingerless liners 8.)Scarpa T3 plastic Telemark ski boots & 3 mm VBL divers' socks over poly liners 9.)light fleece balaclava 10.)Osprey EXOS 61 L. backpack

Amo tus videos. La energía que transmites es superior. Gracias por eso. Sin embargo, para que sean impecables y perfectos, no debes prender fuego de esa manera cerca de bosques o suelo con brisnas secas. Tengo claro que tienes el control, pero demasiada gente no, y si siguen tu ejemplo, aumentamos demasiado las posibilidades de incendios. Y aunque no sea tu intención, estás dando un mal ejemplo. Por favor prende fuego de otra forma, de manera tal que quede claro que no existe ninguna posibilidad de que una chispa provoque un incendio. Gracias ☕👍

From 2010 till 2017 I have visited Swedens Fjällen in Northern Dalarna during high summer with my children and wife. We did many day trips in the Fjällen also in Norway just over the border. Idrefjäll was our place where we took camp. I am now planning to go on a duo trip with a friend for 4 to 5 days in the Grövelsjön area and Töfsingdalen. Doing 10 to 15 kilometers a day before making camp. I stumbled on your videos while searching for hiking videos in the Fjällen. My friend also is watching your videos and we are hoping to go next year in the early summer. We like your minimalistic approch of your hiking. If the trip goes well to our liking we are thinking to go up North and do a piece of the Kungsleden. I know there are bears around the area where we will be hiking, any tips for us to stay of the menu of the bears? I know it is a slim chance that we counter one, but being prepared is better than being surprised. Thanks for your videos, I hope I will watch many more in the future. Save travels to you.
